    i went in my local asda at 8am prepaired to q as its a present for a ill child. Was told i had to come back at 11:30 to q. Phoned at midday to check the advice i was given. At 9pm i popped in to ask were i should go at 11:30 was told by the store manager i wasn't allowed to hang around but the best place to stand was round the sandiwches as i wud be 1st in the q. got their at 11pm to find the store manager had allocated the spaces at 10pm was fuming!! going to take it up with head office. the store manager had phoned the police as he was expecting alot of not happy customers at 11:30.

    The manager has promised me to have the 3rd one that comes in next :D so hopefully should have one next week

    Indeed what does the T's and C's say about the guaranteed delivery and did you grab a screen shot of the Banner.

    Woolies are bound to have some sort of get out.

    But they are a 'family' store :D

    If anyone needs a screen shot of the banner, PM me, because I do.
    Not that it will probably do much good, but might help you get your £20 if Woolies didn't deliver. :rolleyes:

    I had a look at the Ts and Cs on the web site and I can't immediately see anything relevant to preorders. They do state that deliveries can take up to 7 days.
